João Cutileiro OSE (26 June 1937 – 5 January 2021) was a Portuguese sculptor. He is responsible for a number of controversial[why?] female nudes in marble.

Life

[edit]

Cutileiro was born and died in Lisbon. He was the creator of several pieces of modern public sculpture, most famous being his statue of Sebastian of Portugal, inaugurated in 1973, in Lagos, in the Algarve. His work marks the end of the academic historical sculpture of the Estado Novo dictatorship and the beginning of a new era of contemporaneity in the Portuguese public sculpture.
